Answer to Question 1

Jealousy can be contained by trying to improve one's own self-image, by turning it around into a compliment (not she's flirting with other guys but look at how lucky I amother guys also find her attractive) and by trusting one's partner. Communicating with your partner about your jealous feelings can often help to maintain your relationship (Guerrero & Aff, 1999). Opening up and talking about your uncertainty about the relationship or reassessing the relationship can help restore and strengthen the relationship.

Answer to Question 2

1 . Have you clarified your values? What role does love play in your sexual decisions? How will you reconcile these values with those you have learned from your family, friends, and religion?
2 . Are you being honest with yourself? What do you really want out of this encounter? Out of this person? Are you hoping the sexual contact will lead to something deeper, or are you in it simply for the sex?
3 . Are you being honest with your partner? Why is your partner interested in sex with you? Do his or her expectations differ from yours? Will she or he be hurt if your relationship does not develop further?
